Bluesy has a lot of bling. I agree. I’d say the solid yellow gold version is even more blingy. YG Day Dates too.

Once you shine some light on a Sky Dweller they're not subtle.

In my experience the skydweller screams Rolex. It’s basically a DJ (the most common identifiable Rolex) on steroids from a distance.

I would say anything in full yellow or rose gold, with an emphasis on peculiar dials like Green, Meteorite or similarly esoteric ones.

It fits the entire narrative of chasing value and screaming look at me.

Exactly why I no longer want to own this brand

I gotta go with the standard Bluesy on this one. That blue is just so freaking amazing. The (relatively) subtle two tone makes the gold on this one pop and just grabs attention like nothing else I have seen.

Just taking the question at face value without judging why it’s being asked:
Bluesy is a great pic but for me it’s still a full yellow gold model.
So, yellow gold Yacht-Master II with that white dial and crazy blue bezel would grab the eye even quicker than a bluesy I think.
